Former Nigeria international John Ukata has heaped praises on the duo of Moses Simon and Victor Osimhen for their form for club and country.

Osimhen and Simon have been revelations in their club Lille and Nantes this season, despite just playing in France for the first time in their career.

 

While Osimhen hit 19 goals in all competition for the Lille, Simon was scored 9 goals and provided 8 assists for Nantes.

 

While speaking to www.brila.net on his assessment on the players, Utaka who also made names for himself after winning the French Championnat with Montpelier and also had spells at RC Lens and Rennes, rates both highly and praised their fantastic forms.

“They are scoring week in and out, Osimhen and Simon are doing well, I’m super proud of them.”

 

On the current Super Eagles squad, Utaka has this to say : “Honestly we have a very strong team with good players and I just think we should keep them together for more longer, they have done well.” Utaka told www.brila.net.

 

Meanwhile, Osimhen has been linked with a move to many European clubs like Manchester United, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspurs.

 

Moses on his part is also said to be on the wish list of French Champions Paris Saint-Germain, but his future will be sorted by his parent club Levante.
